Running alternately through pine forest, aspens and lavender, this promises to be a delightful route
The route rises gently through the village, along a path and a forest track. When you reach the foot of the Oumbras (1,769 m), you will start a long traverse section overlooking the Durance valley. The descent then leads through Scots pines. Take a pretty single track which passes close by the pink marble quarry of Combe-Mounière. The marble from here was used in the construction of Gap Cathedral. You return to the village along a path running above the lake.
